We've signed Atdhe Nuhiu. No idea who he is but apparently he's a 6ft 6 Albanian striker. Ex-Rapid Vienna and spent time on trial at Crystal Palace. By all accounts they wanted to sign him.

Ian Holloway: “He was somebody who has had a go, I really liked him, I told Dave Jones what I thought of the boy, and he came down and watched – they’ve gone on and signed him."

:lol

Unlucky Palace.
Looooooool.
 
Oh really? Yeah that would be a bonus. We do miss Suarez which is nice.

Christ we have to endure the clown holloway again. I had hoped his buffoonery was out of the PL for good.

Yep. Every shitty prewritten joke will have that scruffy cunt Martin Samuel and his cronies guffawing like the gang of selectively brown-nosing leeches they are, and a bunch of knobends on forums across the internet reeling off endless shite about the way the Premier League needs 'characters'

Fuck off. Same goes for Mourinho.


Didn;t know you were in for Coutinho, I wasn't paying attention to the January rumours. Phew :D
 
Will be genuinely surprised if the English media fawn over Mourinho again like the way they used to. His time in Spain kinda tarnished that air of invincibility he used to have.

Agreed.

Yeah we were sniffing around at the beginning of January but once it was discovered he would cost real money we withdrew our interest. Broke my heart.

nobody laughs harder or with less prompting than sports writers speaking to a sports star or manager

Nah, they'll be verbally caressing his taint as usual. Moyes is British and thus immune to stick too. Pellegrini's the one they'll be all over once City hit a slightly bad run of form.

He's an idiot. Decent manager but the "joke" wore thin a few years ago.

Good management that, taking players on trial and then touting them around to other league managers. Sounds like a bit of a coup for us.

You might remember him actually, apparently he scored against Villa in both home and away legs, although not sure when that was. Just watching a highlights reel and the one at Villa Park was a bit of a bullet header.

Hmm I dont remember that. Will see if the highlights are somewhere.
 
I find his banter awful. On the plus side his teams at least play attacking football.

He probably tries a little too hard, but at least he tries :p though I prefer the Gordon Strachan approach of just not putting up with journos stupid questions

Reporter: "Bang, there goes your unbeaten run. Can you take it?"

Strachan: "No, I'm just going to crumble like a wreck. I'll go home, become an alcoholic and maybe jump off a bridge. Umm, I think I can take it, yeah."

Reporter: "So, Gordon, in what areas do you think Middlesbrough were better than you today?"

Strachan: "What areas? Mainly that big green one out there.”
 
Petagna's agent: "Barça, Real Madrid, Chelsea and HSV are interested in him, but he wants to stay at Milan."

Whoa. I know he showed some good stuff on Tuesday, but that seems a bit excessive. Oh well, he's the perfect Pazzini replacement, hopefully Galliani keeps him at Milan for the rest of the season.
